A Little Time with the 70

Finally got some time to work on the 70. Most of today was spent stripping/sanding the driver's door and the dash. It sure gets slow when you get down to the areas that basically it's only hand sanding since none of the machines will fit in those areas (least what I own).

I did clean up a section of the door jam and painted it. I wanted to see what my color choice was going to look like. I think I am going to like it.

The color is Cayman Metallic. It is a mid early 90's F-rd color. Depending on the year advertised is whether it is considered a blue or green color. I've had a truck and a car painted with this color in the past and it will vary depending on the light which shade it will be.

OK rambling done for now. Time to clean the dust out off the body and get ready fro more of it tomorrow, I hope.

Looks good Bill. I've been too busy playing with my tractor to work on my truck.
